Edmonton Expo 2016: Spotlight on Elizabeth Henstridge

Elizabeth Henstridge may not have a long career in film and TV, but her role as Jemma Simmons on Marvel’s Agent’s of Shield has garnered her a huge following as one of the best female characters on TV.

I also had the chance to meet her at her booth. She was extremely excited to see my Copy of Season One of Agents of Shield littered with Autographs from almost the entire cast. She asked with extreme excitement where I had met them all, and of course, Edmonton and Calgary Expo’s were my answer.

She joked that she knew the signature to cast member Iain De Caestecker, who plays Fitz, and asked if I wanted to have her sign it. I laughed it off and while I knew she was joking, said I’d wait for a chance to meet him.

She was incredibly charming and friendly and should you ever have the chance to meet her in person, you really need too. We talked about her upcoming change to her role in this season of Agents of Shield and how she was excited to see where the current season goes.

Agents of Shield is currently in its fourth season, with the team dealing with a whole new Shield as well as newcomer Ghost Rider added to the mix.
